We've all been there. You open your AI coding assistant, type a prompt, get a result, realise it missed half the requirements, rephrase, try again. Rephrase and repeat. It works (kind of) but it doesn't scale and we lose history.

What if instead of ad-hoc prompting, you could define exactly what needs to be built as a structured spec, and then let the AI agent implement it autonomously — checking off acceptance criteria as it goes?

That's the idea behind Spec-driven Development (SDD), the latest feature in DevoxxGenie v0.9.7.

DevoxxGenie has come a long way from its origins as a simple LLM chat plugin for IntelliJ IDEA. With the latest releases, the plugin has made a fundamental shift — from passive AI assistance to agentic AI capabilities. This reflects a paradigm shift in how developers interact with AI: we're moving beyond generating code snippets toward autonomous agents that can explore, reason about, and modify your codebase.

DevoxxGenie is a powerful AI-powered assistant for IntelliJ IDEA that helps developers be more productive by leveraging the capabilities of Large Language Models (LLMs). Unlike other code assistants, DevoxxGenie is built entirely in Java and offers unique flexibility by supporting both local and cloud-based LLM providers.
